“Ariana did an amazing job. She was very proactive with status updates and kept me informed daily about everything Dexter was up to. I was able to enjoy my trip worry-free knowing my dog was in good hands. 10/10, will book again.”

About: As a lifelong animal lover, I’m truly comfortable with pets of all shapes, sizes, and personalities—whether that’s a high-energy pup, a shy rescue, or even more exotic companions. I’m not afraid of any animals and approach each one with patience, confidence, and genuine care. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and routine are my top priorities, and I’m always willing to go the extra mile—whether that means extra playtime, longer walks, medication administration, or plenty of cuddles. I treat every animal as if they were my own and strive to give you total peace of mind while you’re away. 🐾 I am open right now, currently a mother to twins so just wanting to get out of the house, and love up on your sweet babies! I am open to early hours and late evenings into the night to take care of your pets. I have a fenced backyard with plenty of space for free roaming and a safe neighborhood to walk around at. I love to go for nature walks around Washington and know the best spots!

“Jakob is great with our dogs and respectful of our home.”

“Brad did a great job managing our large pack! And he was very patient as I learned how to use Rover and the app for our bookings. We loved seeing the videos and photos of all our fur kids having a great time while we were away, and definitely recommend Brad for other pet parents!”

About: Hello! We are Cole and Kayla, homeowners in the Lake Limerick area of Shelton. We are conveniently located on your commute between Hwy 101 and Hwy 3. What sets us apart from other sitters is our hands-on experience with a wide range of animals and a deep understanding of what it takes to care for dogs with high energy and specialized needs. We have raised and trained high-energy hunting dogs, which has given us the skills to handle active breeds that require both physical and mental stimulation. We are very familiar with the importance of consistency, exercise, and patience when it comes to training and caring for these types of dogs. In addition to dogs, We have also taken care of livestock, so we are no strangers to early mornings, structured routines, and being attentive to animal behavior and health. Currently, we are raising a 1-year-old Weimaraner, which has only deepened our appreciation for the energy, intelligence, and quirks that come with certain breeds. We understand how to provide the right balance of discipline and affection, and know how important it is to create a safe, stimulating environment where pets feel secure and loved. Whether it's a playful puppy or a senior dog who needs a little extra TLC, we are confident in our ability to provide personalized, attentive care that fits each pet’s unique personality and needs. We both work full time but often have a lot of weekends/holidays available as well as most evenings after 4:00 PM. We also could be available other days potentially depending on the time of year and work schedules. Whether we’re caring for pets in our own home or in a client’s, we approach every situation with the same level of respect, responsibility, and love. We treat each home as if it were our own—clean, safe, and respectful of the space—and every animal in our care as if they were a member of our family. In our home, pets have plenty of room to relax, play, and feel comfortable. We allow frequent potty breaks and are happy to take dogs on walks as needed to help them get their energy out and enjoy some fresh air. If a pet is crate-trained or requires crating at certain times, we’re more than capable of accommodating that in a way that keeps them calm and secure. When caring for pets in a client’s home, we maintain their routines as closely as possible, from feeding and medication schedules to walks, playtime, and quiet time. We make sure they feel safe and loved while their family is away, and we treat the client’s home with the same care and consideration we’d expect in return. No matter the setting, our goal is always to provide a stress-free, comfortable, and loving environment where pets feel truly cared for.

About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my entire life and currently have two dogs and two cats of my own. I started walking dogs at 12 years old and spent multiple summers walking dogs to earn money for trips. Since I was 13, I have also provided in-home dog sitting for various families. I have hands-on experience with feeding, walking, playtime, cleaning up after pets, and providing attentive care while owners are away. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Because I work part-time as a backup, my schedule has great built-in flexibility. While my exact hours can vary week to week, pet care is a top priority for me, and I can easily adapt to fit your pet's needs. I am available for early morning, evening, and weekend care, as well as flexible drop-in visits and house sitting. I always communicate my availability in advance and aim to accommodate your preferred feeding, walking, and care routines as smoothly as possible. Safety and peace of mind are my absolute top priorities when caring for your pets in your home. I strictly follow all owner instructions to maintain your pet's regular routine and keep them feeling secure in their home environment. I pay close attention to safety during walks, double-check that doors and gates are secure, and ensure hazardous items stay out of reach. You can count on reliable communication and regular photo updates during every visit so you know your home and pets are completely safe.

“Karen stayed overnight in our home with our dogs for nine days. The dogs were happy, the house was clean when we returned, and her communication was consistent with daily photos and updates, which gave us peace of mind knowing they were so happy! Overall, a positive experience — we would definitely recommend her.”

“Very responsible and sensitive to our senior cat’s needs. She was great with communication, made us feel that our kitties were in good hands.”

About: I grew up with all sorts of pet friends: frogs, geckos, dogs, and cats. From a year long pet sitting gig to one of my regulars that has geese and ducks! Let me know how I can provide peace of mind to your family while you're away. My work from home position and my Wednesday-Sunday work schedule gives me a unique position that most others cannot provide. I am home bound for work during typical "social days" and love to have pets of all kinds as my coworkers! Everyone's needs are different. I personally have two indoor cats that I would never let out. But, I know others who have an outdoor cat they take on walks. Understanding that each pet has a different personality, routines, and temperament is the key to making sure everyone's needs are met.

“Brittany was great with our senior girls! She took amazing care of them and we never felt worried about their well being. We have already booked again with Brittany and Hailey and will continue to do so.”

Kelsey C.

“We love Lisa! She’s so great at communicating, kind, responsible, and I feel so comfortable leaving my dog under her care. She is respectful of our space and lovely to work with. We already have her booked for another stay!”

“Tabutha took care of our elderly dog over the long weekend. She was responsive and sent updates. She also left our home clean and tidy. I would recommend her and will use her again in the near future.”

Melanie B.

“Alyssa stayed with my needy little poodle mix and also my son’s active golden retriever for a long weekend. Both dogs seemed happy and relaxed when we came on and the house was clean and tidy. I would totally have her come again!”

“Erica saved me when a previous housesitter had to cancel last minute due to a family emergency. Lots of pictures, communicated regularly, and clearly loved on Eva while I was gone.”

About: I saved my Chihuahua, Thistle, from a kill shelter when he was 18 months old. I nursed him through being hit by a car, helped him gain weight from being underfed, and encouraged him to be a confident dog (he was extremely anxious) through training and gentle love and care. From this, I learned how to administer medications to animals, so I can provide this kind of care to your fur babies also. My Chihuahua is now a senior dog, but you wouldn’t be able to tell with how active he is! He gets lots of walks and play time, and he loves it best when I get on the floor with him. I am comfortable getting to know your pet and giving them the level and type of attention that they need! I looked into breed specific care, and Chihuahuas have weaker joints, so I put him on a joint supplement right when I got him, and it has really made a difference in his mobility and quality of life. It’s important to administer care to animals in the specific way that is best for them! I would show the same consideration to your pet. That includes factoring in their temperament. As my dog has gotten older, his needs around personal boundaries have increased, so I make sure to check in with him before petting him, picking him up, or otherwise touching him, and I do not touch him if he gives me a no, except in an actual emergency (i.e. the animal could be hurt or hurt someone else if I do not touch them). Instead, I do something else and check in again later. This allows me to establish a real felt sense of safety and trust with your pet. I also had cats all growing up, and have a real affection for them, as well as a clear understanding of their boundaries. I would be honored to care for your pet family just as I care for mine! I currently freelance, which means I have the freedom to take care of your pets whenever you need me to. I can be flexible to your needs. As my dog is a people’s dog and not a dog’s dog, I offer my services in your home. I can walk your pet, do a drop-in visit, or housesit! I will follow your instructions to the letter, and ask about any specific or special care your pet might need.

“Ashlyn was very responsive and made herself available at the last minute to watch our dog and cat, plus a tortoise and 2 fish. In addition to caring for our sick dog, she also looked after our house, watered our plants and in general came to the rescue at the last minute for us.”
